| Obverse description | Bare-headed left-facing effigy of King George V, modelled by Bertram Mackennal, occupies the centre of the square flan with rounded corners. The king is depicted with a neatly trimmed beard and close-cropped hair, in a style consistent with Mackennal's standard portrait used throughout the reign. The circular legend GEORGE V D.G.BRITT.OMN:REX arcs around the upper portion of the coin, while the date 1919 appears prominently at the base, flanked by small decorative stops. The flat, uncluttered field gives the portrait a bold, modern appearance appropriate to a pattern issue. |
